Martín Zubimendi, the talented Real Sociedad midfielder, has become one of the most sought-after players in European football. His name has been linked with clubs like Real Madrid, Arsenal, and Liverpool, and now Manchester United has also entered the fray.

Scouting in the Europa League

Manchester United plans to closely examine Zubimendi in the Europa League round of 16 tie against Real Sociedad. This Thursday, in the first leg, the "Red Devils" will have the opportunity to see the 26-year-old Basque midfielder in action and assess whether he fits into their future plans.

Need for Midfield Reinforcement

According to reports from GiveMeSport, Manchester United plans to part ways with players like Casemiro and Christian Eriksen at the end of the season. Therefore, they believe that Zubimendi, with his talent, vision, and experience, would be an ideal reinforcement for their midfield.

Release Clause and Competition

Manchester United knows that they will have to pay the 60 million euros that mark Zubimendi's release clause. Real Sociedad has made it clear that they will not negotiate the sale of their star player.

Furthermore, the "Red Devils" will face stiff competition from clubs like Real Madrid, Arsenal, and Liverpool. They will also have to convince Zubimendi, who so far has not shown much interest in moving and might not be willing to join a team that, barring a surprise, will not play in European competitions next season.

Zubimendi's Profile

Martín Zubimendi is a defensive midfielder with a great ability to recover balls and distribute play. His vision and passing accuracy make him a key player for Real Sociedad.

Impact on Manchester United

The potential arrival of Zubimendi would significantly strengthen Manchester United's midfield. His experience and quality would be a great asset to the team.

The signing of Martín Zubimendi by Manchester United presents itself as a complicated operation. The high competition and Real Sociedad's stance make the Basque midfielder's arrival at Old Trafford difficult.
